Notes

Discussion continued with conversation threads between project members over the past few weeks.

There are a few suggestions for this projects focus:

Action

Please be prepared to participate in the planned upcoming 2010-04-09 LDDemo telecon by;

Voting for 1, 2, or 3.

For 1, suggesting catalogs and datasets that are candidates for DCAT and OPM and other vocabularies and suggesting desired linkages and how to leverage VOID

For 2, proposing existing published open gov data for interlinking and any required means of achieving that

For 3, determining what work is demonstrative of principles or best practices relevant to open gov linked data and collateral authors/owners

For all, describing a 'user story' exercising these that can be used as an input to communication collateral that will highlight the work of this project

Any/all other ideas that are able to be executed are most welcome!

We'll need to emerge from this meeting with a clear set of goals/objectives to communicate to eGov IG chairs.
